Missing the Baby Stage

Kade Smith

Soon-to-be older brother

Tomorrow's new episode of Bringing Up Bates is all about Bates babies...well, almost. Carlin and Evan Stewart have their first ultrasound, and their doctor reveals some difficult news. Carlin has the same disorder as older sister Erin Paine, which causes concern about the pregnancy. Later, Tori Smith shares a baby announcement of her own during a walk with Josie and Willow Balka. And Gil meets with his doctor to discuss shoulder surgery.

Perfect timing for the video below, as we await news from Tori and Bobby of Kolter Grey Smith's arrival. Coming soon to a computer screen (or smartphone) near you! Most everything in life has been put on hold due to the coronavirus pandemic, but births are one event that cannot be delayed. And let's be honest, we could all use some UPlifting news right about now.

Kolter Smith is Almost Here!

The first day of spring is quickly approaching, as is Tori's April due date. She is nearing the end of her second pregnancy and will deliver Kolter Grey Smith sometime in the next few weeks. Stay tuned for an announcement! Older brother Kade Smith just turned 16 months old.

33 Weeks with Layla Rae

The Stewarts still haven't received their Christmas present. It might be more fitting to call this one a Valentine's Day present, which is fitting because the Bates always have a big I Love You Day celebration. This gift will certainly be worth the wait. Carlin is 33 weeks pregnant, which means that Layla Rae Stewart is due to arrive in less than two months!

How many cousins will Layla have? Evan has six nieces and nephews, while Carlin has 12, with Tori's second son (Kolter Grey Smith) schedule to make his appearance in April.
